Are the prices these us schools quote on their website the same price they quote on the i120. I hav been looking for schools in the us, and the ones I have bin seeing are quite expensive, if I go 2 uk with dat amount I might not need to work tru out my programme.

kpolli: And u were driving on Naija roads shocked shocked shocked Bad girl...

But over in Louisiana, you can't get a license without SSN... So maybe you should tell the hiring office your having issues obtaining one... Why can't you just simply use ur Passport, i94 n I-20 as means of identification? You no get voters card nii or something?

dis badt girl is waiting for kpolli to me the benz before i get d naija licence. im moving back to houston dis summer so ill be ur neighbor.

You can get downloadable sample practice questions at the ETS/GRE website.I used it prior to my exam-it's the same format and setting as the main exam.

Thanks

Mamacita007: pls house, has anybody experienced difficulty in trying to get a drivers license and state id card? i went to the MVD office and they said dat my sevis is not showing any information on deir system.i went back to my international students office and they showed me that im active with sevis. i went back again today and the woman is saying the same thing. ive taken dis matter to God becos i wonder whats going on. Even for the job on campus, they said dat i shud bring 2 forms of id. my passport, i-20 and drivers license or state id card. wat can i do abt dis?
is it becos my i-94 is thru houston immigration? yvete i called u 2ce yesterday. my landlady still refuse to connect the internet. pls cal her today.

Mamacita007:

I took everything dere today. every single document. they said that im inactive with uscis. i even took my schedule of classes for dis spring semester showing 9hrs enrollment. shud i leave dem and get international drivers licence? becos my kenyan friend is using it to drive here. i no get drivers licence frm naija.



person wey still dey naija. you dey mind am? mschewww always criticizing pple

Funny. Such happened to me when I went for SSN the following week I got to US because my GA stipend can't be paid without SSN. At last, I was told at the SS administration to come back after 30 day and guess what after 30 days?......I went back to submit all documents and the SSN was given few weeks later. State ID......hmmm, you wan start dey go club and party ni, sebi you just got to the state nau...How dem wan know say you be resident of the state when you never spend up to 3 weeks there? Chill nau..... Driver's license take some weeks too but you can drive well with you international driver's license for a year. Though this varies with state.

All in all.....Abeg, exercise some patience.

If you are on full GA...forget about any other on campus job. The graduate school won't even let you near it unless you want to risk losing the GA.

Sure, I will do that when I come back from class today.
That would be okay.
I also have the official GRE test simulation software which I downloaded from the ETS website. However, I cant distribute it due to its massive size - 60MB. The software when run depicts the actual test conditions. I highly recommend it. Anyone who really needs it can download it from www.ets.org/gre

I knew they were going to understand your situation on the ID thingy smileyBTW, congrats on your job! You're really very fortunate to have gotten a job in your first few days on campus! Library is a fun place to work, though can be a lil' stressful depending on the dept (circulation, reference, archives, technical, ILL etc) but I'm pretty sure you'll do just fine. And since you're a grad student, you even stand the chance of landing a GA position there next semester if you do a good job this semester.

As per your driver's license, next step after studying the manual is to practice on this website below. Take the test severally until you begin to get 30/30 even with your eyes closed! You may then go for the test and come back to thank me later grin

My big cuz got his temporary DL last week. After the written test, you get the temp permit in TX, but cannot get the official DL until after 30 days of continuous residency in the state. You don't need SSN to get DL here.

I wouldn't get scared if I were you, because sometimes it takes up to 10 days for SEVIS updates to reflect across other government systems including the DMV. When did you check-in at the international office? As per the on-campus job, tell them you're new and do not have a Drivers License or State ID yet. They should be able to work out something for you except the job requires driving. Have you applied for SSN already?

I still dey Nigeria. My bad..I thought it was the one everyone there is ridiculing.Am looking at U of NC,charlotte and WIU,Chicago & East TN St Univ.Am torn between US and Australia.But by June I will know what is what.

Life in Heaven is awesome. You can't stand up to the men on this thread yet you wanna pick on me. Someone called you ignorant yesterday, why don't you stand up to them? tongue tongue

Honestly I just saw those this morning.I've been busy with work and my finals. I don't look at gender before I comment. I just realized it wasn't the school everyone is being advised to stay away from. I have apologized.
